Hi Justwise and all nairalanders please help me,

Thanks for all your help especially on my previous applications which has all been successful. Am in a fixed situation now and need urgent advice. So i applied to join my husband as his dependent (spouse) last year (June 2018) and got the visa, i also did my masters in the UK(2016-2017), however my husbands tier 1 visa was expiring this year so instead of the usual 2 years i was granted visa till the expiration of his which was April 2019 and he has already applied for his Indefinite leave to remain (ILR) since 1st February, i have also applied to renew my spousal visa and we are both waiting for a decision on that, now am 7 months pregnant and was looking at applying for a visit visa from my mum (2 months visit), obviously with my husband as the sponsor, she has been to the UK once in 2005 for my step sisters wedding whom i don't really communicate with, do i also have to mention her in the application cos i was in secondary school when my parents came for her wedding and i didnt know much plus we don't talk now. My mum has'nt travelled out since then but my parents are doing very well in Naija and relocation is definitely the last thing on their mind. i am very confused can we make this application with our pending visa decision, can i use my sister inlaw who is British as the major applicant? my mum works with a federal ministry and runs her own business, plus my dad and kid brother (12 years) are still in Nigeria too is this ties strong enough? the solicitor we just spoke to said recently 9/10 UK visas are denied don't know how true this is and am due to give birth ending of JULY. All and any advice given will be appreciated.

Please does anyone have an idea how this flexi thing works. Does one fee covers all or each family member has to pay a separate fee.

I have 400k in my account . Feeding and accommodation will be taken care off .I intend to spend 280 for the trip.Do I have a chance.

From experience if it's her first time of travelling 4months won't fly...they will look for one excuse,put 3weeks .....they will give her 6months and after her three weeks send a mail on her behalf to home office that she may not be able to leave after the 3weeks because of your new baby and you needs her around more...then state the new date which Is below the 6months month visit visa and make sure she leaves on or before the new date you have sent.

Thanks

This issue of 4 months - 3 weeks is still bothering me. I want to resume back to work and I will need her to be here for close to 4 months but this issue of filling in 3 weeks instead of the 4 months is really bothering me.

The notion that they are denying 9/10 is not true.. It all depends whether the applicant meet the requirements or not. I will advise that your mom apply with her husband and they both be their own sponsor since you said they are doing very well in nigeria. If that is not the case, your sister inlaw can invite your mom, but your mom should be the sponsor of the trip. You should’ involve you and your spouse in this given that your both application is pending waiting for decision.

If you take time to look at most of the refusal letters that have been posted on here you will find that money lodgement in huge quantities is a big issue.. all the refusals from money lodgement without explaining the source were denied.
Then also you cant print out a bank statement of one month old to go and submit at the embassy... you would also be told that it is not a true representation of your financial abilities at the time of filing your application.

From the little i have seen on this site , they complain pf money lodgements a lot in Visa refusal letters.
Well this is the little i have observed

House please What do I do... UK had sent a mail to me saying my passport has been dispatched from UK since last week but up till now tls Ikeja has not sent any mail to me to pick up my passport.. Pls advise me

4months is definatly too much, to b on the save SIDE go with the 3weeks or even less, by God's grace she gets it, she can den stay for 4months but bear in mind that you have to giv a tangible reason in her next application y she stayed way pass the 3weeks( and giving that you going to put to bed and needed her around) might not be much of an issue...

Please what do i do now cos my appointment is 30th

....one thing I know is that you can not possibly think of uploading a Week 1-April bank statement in late May ....thats like 7 weeks apart...

Ucdavid111:

your passport would definitely be at TLS Ikeja already. They did that for my mom but we just went there later and found out that they just didnt update their records.. passport was ready since. You can try to pick up you might just have thesame issue my mom had

Will it be acceptable if i ask bank to skip the two dates while printing the complete statement

the passport might not ready cos that's what I'm experiencing now. I got a mail from UK that my application has been dispatched on 25th of March, up to this moment i haven't gotten my passport and i have been to TLS thrice and i was told that it wasn't ready. Seriously, i don't really know what's going on.

Hello good people,

I want to apply for UK visa for the very first time. I am a frequent traveler and I have been to Canada, South Africa, Israel and 8 EU countries. I still have a valid schengen multiple entry visa. There seems to be peculiarities with UK application and I'd love to get some clarifications.

1. With visa appointments, are interviews done? It seems like there are no interviews, but still I'm not sure....because visa application centres don't normally ask you to book appointments for submissions.
2. During appointment, do I go with both originals and photocopies of documents, or just the photocopies?
3. I also read someone saying that I need to present photocopies of ALL the pages of my previous passports (stamped or not). Is this true and still a thing?
4. I have several accounts to cater for different income arrangements, but I tend to move most of them into in my main bank account, which is what I typically use for my visa applications. This never poses a problem for me. But going through the thread, it seems like UK demands that I must explain every single deposit into my account. Is this the case? This would be very difficult as I have tones of such transfers regularly into my account, and it would be very silly to start explaining all of my inflows for 6 months. I would like clarification on this part...
5. Finally, is UK visa app generally stricter than Schengen and Canada? Is it easier? Are there peculiar differences that I should note?

Thanks a lot to everyone. God bless you as you respond. .

NanaOne1:
Thanks

You're welcome

Good morning everyone, has anybody been able to use the self-upload recently and document uploaded successfully on tls? Just want to know before i make my payment.
Thanks

Dear All,

I would like to know if anyone submitted his or her visa application at TLS VI on April 25th and has Picked up his or her passport.


Awaiting response.

Thanks

For now, the tls are having issues with the upload page. As a workaround, they have published that anyone who cannot upload up till the appointment date will be assisted free of charge at their center.

If your initial printed statement is not more than 15 days old you can still go ahead and use it.

We all understand your anxiety, but seriously it's nothing to worry about. A decision has already been made by the UKBA.

Remain positive.

Hello is this the right UK application form? https://www.pdffiller.com/jsfiller-desk15/?projectId=297385720&expId=4981&expBranch=1#9745dcd15320428eb01fd595379e53c5
Secondly should i fill and sign the form online without printing the forms out? I need to know becos the last time i filled the UK application form in 2013, it was downloaded and printed out and the hard copy was submitted. so how do I go about this ? should i fill it and sign online then click the "Done" button to submit it? after submitting should i print out this filled and signed form and take along side my attacked document to the UK application center? pls i need a clear direction.Thank you.

Yommieyomi:

That’s a fraudulent act, please don’t even try soliciting the banks help on that, they never won’t and it will make you look fraudulent. Write a letter on the said deposit, explain how and why that money was deposited. You can as well tell them you sold a property of yours or someone paid you what they owed you, it all depends on the kind of circumstance you are claiming to be in.
